MACRO To Change Date Format?

Mar 31, 2014

I have an excel dataset and I have dates entered differently. For example they could be written as:

MM/DD/YY
MM/DD/YYYY
M/D/YY
M/D/YYYY
....
....

Ultimately what I am interested in doing is writing a macro (and saving it in its own file) that can be run on any excel spreadsheet that will change the dates to be formatted the same: MM/DD/YYYY

The issue is that a date written as 10/10/27 would need to be changed to 10/10/1927 (so adding the 19).

Macro To Change Date Format To General Format

Oct 17, 2012

I have two columns where there are dates (e.g. 11/05/2009) in a date format; I would like to change the format to `general`; but without losing the original values, i.e. I still want to see 11/05/2009, but just in `general`format. Is it possible to create a macro that will do that? I want these values to stay in the same place, i.e. if it is in cell K10, I still want to have it there - just in other format.

Excel 2007 :: Date Filtering - Change Date Format Supplied By Date Picker

Apr 24, 2012

I have a table of data (total 142 rows). Column contains dates, in the format dd-mmm-yyyy.

I tried to filter using DATE FILTERS->EQUALS and in the custom filter window, I chose EQUALS then picked a date from the date picker icon. The date I picked was 5/4/2009 (this is May 4, 2009, formatted automaticall by excel as m/d/yyyy).

When I clicked OK, nothing showed up despite the fact that there are 6 occurences of May 4, 2009 (formatted as dd-mmm-yyyy in the data table)

So my questions are:

1. Is this due to the formatting?

2. Is there a way to change the date format supplied by the date picker?

Userform Date Format Reverting Back To Us Format On Change Event

Aug 10, 2009

I have created a userform but I am having extensive problems with the date formats.

My system is set to UK and short date is set to: DD/MM/YYYY

When I used code to add the values in the userform to the spreadsheet, any that contained a date format would revert to the US format.

So I finally figured out to use DateValue to format it correctly for example: ...

Change The Date Format

May 27, 2009

when I do Format Cell, the date formats offered use US formats like 20/02/1999. Why does it do this, and can I fix it? I suspect that this the root of the following problem.

I have a button on a userform to enter today's date into a textbox. It enters it as 05/27/2009. The wrong format. I save the data to the worksheet, then use the data form to go to the next record, then back. The date then appears in the correct format as 27/05/2009.

Another related problem: if I enter a date manually into the textbox on the dataform, such as 2/3/2008, it interprets it as Feb. 3, and when I save it to the worksheet, and then use the form to view it, it comes out as 3/2/2008.

Date Change/format Tool

Aug 17, 2007

way the date are shown can be changed by the date format tool, provided the date was entered the correct way. I think we are missing each other. I think the way the date was entered (17.08.07) and converted to (17/08/07) was good. At first it was in text so one wouldnt have known whether it will be taken as yymmdd, ddmmyy, mmddyy etc. well it end up like as 17(yy), 08(mm), 07(dd) instead as 17(dd), 08(mm) and 07(yy). My Q now is is there a way (formula) to swap these orders around...?

Format Certain Cells To Change Colors Depending On Date

Feb 27, 2013

I am trying to format certain cells to change colors depending on the date and the content of the next field to show due dates.

cell label
due date
date completed

c5
au5
be5

c6
au6
be6

c7
au7
be7

c8
au8
be8

What I need is for the contents of au5 to be green up until 10 days before the due date, yellow up until 5 days, and red with less than 5 days until the due date. If the date completed is entered into be5, then the contents of au5 should be black.

Is this possible, and if it is, how do I set this up? I tried to use

=$AU5-TODAY()>=10

And choose green formatting (something I found on yahoo answers), but when I enter the date the text is still the original black font.
